What is Google Flow?

Google Flow is a browser-based studio where Google’s generative models, an AI agent and user-built tools share one project canvas. It targets the whole loop of planning, generating and refining rather than one-off prompts.

What stands out

  • The free tier is unusually usable: 50 credits every day, with access to Veo 3.1, Gemini Omni Flash and Nano Banana Pro, though free accounts may be unable to make video at peak hours.
  • Flow credits are bundled into Google AI plans that also include the Gemini app, extra storage and YouTube Premium benefits.
  • Tools let you package a workflow, such as shader effects or animated type overlays, then share and remix it.

Limitations

  • You must be 18 or over and in a supported country.
  • Video editing and Avatars are blocked in the EEA, Switzerland and the UK, and credit purchases are unavailable in Japan.
  • Credits never roll over, daily or monthly.
  • Free accounts may be unable to generate video during peak hours, roughly 2 to 5 PM UTC. Images and the Flow agent still work, and 1080p video upscaling needs a subscription.
  • Prices vary by market, and although the interface covers 38 languages, Google recommends English prompts for best results.

Google Flow FAQ

Yes. Anyone aged 18 or over with a Google Account gets 50 Google Flow credits per day, which covers several Veo 3.1 Lite clips, plus the agent, Scenebuilder, characters, avatars and 2K image upscaling. During peak hours, roughly 2 PM to 5 PM UTC, free accounts may not be able to generate video, though images and the agent still work.

It depends on the model and plan. A Veo 3.1 Lite video costs 10 credits, or 5 for Ultra subscribers, a 4-second 720p Gemini Omni Flash clip costs 7 credits, and a video edit costs 40 credits.

Flow itself is, but video editing and Avatar features are not available in the European Economic Area, Switzerland or the United Kingdom. Buying extra AI credits is also unavailable in Japan.

No. Daily credits reset each day and monthly subscription credits expire at the end of the month, so it pays to plan heavier projects around your renewal date.

Google Flow now lives at flow.google.com and the old Google Labs address redirects there. The product has grown from a Veo filmmaking experiment into a studio with Gemini Omni, an agent and custom tools.
